RJV Construction

RJV Construction is currently installing sewer collection mains for a town water and sewer project, connecting new mains to individual properties as the work moves through the roadway — the kind of large-scale underground infrastructure job the company is built around. Based in Westwood and working across Greater Boston, RJV describes itself as a fourth-generation family business: third-generation Pacella family members Ronald Jr., Joseph, and Victor founded it, and a younger generation — David, Christopher, Victor Jr., Ronald III, and Querino — took over running it in 2019. The company has also worked on sewer projects for other towns: Barnstable's 725 Main Street Sewer Pump Station Project, reported in 2024, and a multi-week sewer main job on Cove Road in Dennis, reported in 2025. MassDOT prequalification and DCAMM certification back its public-works bids, and it cites a founding-member role in the Utility Contractors Association of New England along with leadership history in the National Utility Contractors Association. BBB rates the company A+ and credits it with 34 years in business, though it isn't BBB-accredited; on Google it holds 3.8 stars from 12 ratings, and BuildZoom shows 11 projects on file for the company. Worth knowing before hiring: safetyrecord.org, a public OSHA-inspection tracker, lists four inspections of the company since 2010 that resulted in six violations and $8,175 in penalties. BuildZoom also lists a Massachusetts contractor license (#188710) for the business — check the state registry directly for its current status. RJV's documented work is municipal-scale underground utility construction — sewer mains, drainage, and pump stations built under town contracts — rather than typical homeowner repair, so it is the right call for public-works-scale sitework and excavation; confirm the license status and, for any residential-scale job, how the work would be scoped and insured.
